SEDGWICK COUNTY -Law enforcement authorities in Sedgwick County are investigating a violent attack and after six-months are now asking for help to identify a suspect.
Just before 3:30 p.m. on August 2, 2016, a 58-year-old woman was attacked in the entry way of an apartment building near 2nd and Topeka in Wichita, according to a social media report.
The victim told police someone had been walking closely behind her for about a block and followed her into the building.
